"Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: for by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: and he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven." (Colossians 1:12-20)

"My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,and he -- he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world." (1 John 2:1,2) Young's Literal Translation

"Having foreordained us to the adoption of sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, in which He did make us accepted in the beloved, in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the remission of the trespasses, according to the riches of His grace, in which He did abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the secret of His will, according to His good pleasure, that He purposed in Himself, in regard to the dispensation of the fulness of the times, to bring into one the whole in the Christ, both the things in the heavens, and the things upon the earth -- in him." (Ephesians 1:5-10) YLT

"And now, Christ hath risen out of the dead -- the first-fruits of those sleeping he became,for since through man [is] the death, also through man [is] a rising again of the dead,for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,and each in his proper order, a first-fruit Christ, afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence,then -- the end, when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power --for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet -- the last enemy is done away -- death; (1 Corinthians 15:20-26) YLT

"For this [is] right and acceptable before God our Saviour, who doth will all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth; for one [is] God, one also [is] mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus, who did give himself a ransom for all -- the testimony in its own times ."
